Episode 31: Honoring the Body as Sacred with Jacqui Johnson
In this episode of Hidden Gifts of Loss, Julie sits down with Jacqui Johnson, creator of The Magnificent Body Experience—a transformational 10-day program that invites women to reconnect with their bodies in unexpected and profound ways.
Jacqui's journey into this sacred work began after the sudden loss of her beloved mother, Ronnie. What started as grief unfolded into a calling: to help women stop seeing their bodies as projects to conquer and instead honor them as cherished companions.
Together, Julie and Jacqui explore:
How the loss of Jacqui 's mother awakened her life's purpose.
Why women struggle to accept compliments and live at odds with their bodies.
The role of storytelling in healing, resilience, and creating safe spaces for transformation.
How just 30 minutes a day for 10 days can shift how we see and inhabit our bodies.
The unexpected ways grief gifts us clarity, courage, and connection.
Jacqui 's story is one of legacy, love, and liberation. From her roots in Ghana to her decades-long career as a fashion designer, she now weaves together creativity, psychology, and deep compassion to guide women back to themselves.
Whether you're navigating loss, longing for a deeper connection with your body, or simply seeking inspiration to embrace life fully—this conversation offers wisdom, warmth, and hope.
